"When it comes to crossing the river to enter the Cave of Thousand Corpses, the man who crosses the river is the perfect person."
"The people who cross the river specialize in ferrying the living to see the dead in the place where the dead are. I think if you follow the people who cross the river, you have a lot of hope of successfully crossing the Cave of Thousand Corpses."
The person who spoke this time was a Feng Shui master wearing a Tai Chi Bagua robe.
Ding ding
The Feng Shui master hung three copper bells around his waist, which made a gentle ringing sound at night.
Those three copper bells are quite small and delicate.
Styles vary.
A copper bell is engraved with the tomb beast.
A copper bell is engraved with landscapes, birds and animals.
A copper bell is engraved with the sound of a roaring river.
Each bell is exquisitely made, comparable to handicrafts, and is not an ordinary bell that can be seen everywhere in the folk.
"Old sir, how about we join forces and you give me a ride, and we'll look after each other after we enter the Cave of Thousand Corpses?"
The Feng Shui master with three copper bells hanging on his waist looked at the blind man crossing the river with a gentle smile.
The little monkey squatting on the mountain on the shoulder of the old man crossing the river was actually very quiet at this time.
This little monkey is very understanding of human nature.
Perhaps even it knows that the Cave of Thousand Corpses in the Yinyi River that is about to descend is very dangerous, and it is rare to find peace and quiet at this moment.
A pair of monkey eyes stared closely at the Thousand Corpses Cave, which was as dark as a devil's mouth.
Looking nervous.
"You should be clear about the rules of the ferry business, right?"
This was the first time Jin An heard the blind man crossing the river speak.
The voice was hoarse and rough, like rough stones grinding together.
It is estimated that his throat was injured.
When the man crossing the river spoke, he looked at the Feng Shui master. Even if he was blind, it did not affect his daily life at all.
Jin An suddenly thought of a very powerful sentence.
I am blind but not blind!
"Little brother, that Feng Shui master is an expert." Just as Jin An lowered his head and suppressed his laughter, the old Taoist priest whispered to Jin An.
"Huh?" Jin An couldn't help but take a few more glances at the Feng Shui master.
"Old Dao, did you see something?"
The old Taoist priest stood in the crowd, secretly raised his finger and pointed at the three small bells hanging on Mr. Feng Shui's waist, and explained the reason.
"Little brother, have you noticed the three small bells hanging on the waist of the Feng Shui Master?"
"This bell is also called a Feng Shui bell in the Feng Shui world. Feng Shui masters have three treasures: a bell, a compass, and a dragon-seeking ruler."
"In the Feng Shui world, there is an unwritten rule. If two Feng Shui masters fight over business, acupuncture, personal grudges, etc., whoever wins can take off the other person's Feng Shui bell and hang the other person's Feng Shui bell around his waist.
It is used to tell outsiders that this person has been defeated by me, and his future brothers, disciples, and disciples will not be able to do business in my territory unless he wins the Feng Shui Bell again in a battle of wits."
"So it is a shame for Mr. Feng Shui to lose his Feng Shui Bell. And this Feng Shui Bell is often hung on the waist by his opponent and made public. This is even more shameful and humiliating. It is more heart-wrenching than killing someone.
vicious."
Jin An was a little surprised when he heard this.
Mr. Feng Shui, who usually seems calm and gentle, is unexpectedly fighting so fiercely.
really.
Regardless of the industry, colleagues are mortal enemies.
The old Taoist priest continued to explain: "Little brother, look at the three Feng Shui bells hanging on the waist of that Feng Shui gentleman. Each one has a different style, which means that two of the Feng Shui bells were won by him."
"He has at least fought with two Feng Shui masters, and has won two times in a row without losing once."
"That's why I say that he is an expert in Feng Shui."
The words of the old Taoist priest made Jin An start to look seriously at the Feng Shui master in the Tai Chi Bagua robe.
The conversation between the Feng Shui master and the old ferryman over there is still going on.
"The ferry is borrowing the Yin Road. It is the road of the dead. As the saying goes, money can make the devil push the wheels. I understand the rules of the ferryman. After I get off the Yinyi River, if the old gentleman is in danger, I can help him.
Once, as the price of equivalent exchange."
After listening to Mr. Feng Shui's words, the old man who was crossing the river didn't know whether he was relying on the sound to identify the location, or whether his eyes were not completely blind but could see things in front of him. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the three Feng Shui bells hanging on Mr. Feng Shui's waist.
.
He smiled dryly and said, "Easy to say, easy to say."
Seeing that the River Crosser was so easy to talk to, Mr. Feng Shui and the River Crosser reached cooperation so easily. Several other folk exorcists present also approached the River Crosser old man.
The man who crossed the river repeated the same sentence every time: "You should be clear about the rules of the ferry business, right?"
In order to get the people crossing the river to take them in, these people imitated the Feng Shui master's words. After descending to the Yinyi River, if the people crossing the river were in danger, they could rescue the people crossing the river once as an equal exchange price.
I don’t know whether these people were sincere or just perfunctory to trick the people crossing the river. Anyway, the people crossing the river smiled dryly and spoke very well and agreed to let these people board the boat.
Afterwards, there were four people who found the man crossing the river.
Including the previous Feng Shui master, there were a total of five people who found the old man who crossed the river to cooperate.
Seeing that the old man crossing the river suddenly became so talkative, Jin An frowned.
I always felt that something was wrong with this man crossing the river.
I don't know if it was because of the little monkey, but Jin An and the old man who was crossing the river felt unhappy.
I always felt that this man crossing the river was not a kind person and could not really be so kind and easy to talk to.
"Old sir, this raft can only hold three people at a time. Add all of us together, there are six people in total. That's twice the number of people. I'm afraid this raft can't hold so many people, right?"
Someone asked the old man who crossed the river a question.
The man crossing the river raised his hand with a smile on his face and pointed at the dry bottom of the Yinyi River: "Then there just happened to be a ship coming..."
Several people looked over after hearing this.
Well.
Everyone was surprised.
In the Yinyi River, which has not completely dried up and bottomed out, a fishing boat slowly floats down from the upper reaches.
I don’t know if one of the fishermen failed to tie up the rope. The Yinyi River stopped flowing and the water level receded, causing the fishing boat to be washed down from the upstream.
The fishing boat drifted slowly.
Finally it was stranded on the shore.
As luck would have it, it happened to be stranded nearby. The seats on this swinging fishing boat were squeezed together, and it was just big enough for five or six people.
Jin An frowned.
"Little brother, let's stay away from the man crossing the river later. There is a ghost in that man." The old Taoist priest quietly reminded Jin An.
Jin An frowned and nodded.
At this time, there is still a country goddess left in the field, a taciturn Mr. Yin and Yang, a person who asks questions, and a Kuixing who kicks the fight.
All four said they acted alone.
Don't want to be in the same boat with others.
They probably all took a look at Jin An. Going down to the Cave of Thousand Corpses this time is extremely dangerous. I can't trust outsiders, and they are worried that they will be stabbed in the back or do bad things to their pig teammates.
So I would rather act alone.
"Now that everyone has been assigned, let's go, everyone. I hope we can successfully defeat the Dragon King this time and everyone can get ashore safely."
"The blessings of your descendants, as well as the promotion and promotion promised to you by the imperial court, are all waiting for you to return in triumph."
